This bauble shop shines all the brighter in its new sunlit digs on Tremont Street, the perfect showcase for Sophie Hughes’s stunning hand-forged jewelry. As beautiful as the craftswoman’s opal necklaces and diamond necklaces are on the outside, it’s what’s on the inside that really counts: Made with antique tools for an appealingly rough-hewn texture, her work features recycled metals, reclaimed gems, and other ethically sourced materials.
